When I woke I was still tired. The sheet was twisted around my legs and Marie was hugging the other side of the bed. I disentangled myself from the constricting material and got up to start my morning routine.
Usually Marie would sleep until I was done shaving and showering. Then she would do her routine while I got into my suit and tie. While she dresses I then usually go to the kitchen and start the coffee, well until we got that one cup coffee maker, and get out our favorite cereals. Stacey actually gets herself up and joins us. By then Marie is dressed and we sit and eat a quiet breakfast before I head off to the edge of town where the manufacturing plant is located. It is usually a thirty minute drive for me. Marie leaves a little later as her school is only about ten minutes from our home. Stacey has her own car and only takes twenty minutes to get the high school.
This morning she interrupted my shave. “How are you feeling? You were very restless last night. I had to hug the edge of the bed as you were kicking out all night long.”
I just shrugged. There were vague fragments of dreams, maybe nightmares would be a better term, but nothing I could vocalize. “I don’t know, maybe work is getting to me a little.”
She obviously didn’t buy that answer but didn’t press the issue, just jumped into the shower and started to clean up. When she got out she hugged me from the back. “I just know I owe you a big one for last night and I intend to pay you off tonight, Big Boy.”
I gave her reflection in the mirror a grin and then turned and gave her a kiss before taking my own shower.
Work that day was so-so. Nothing new or exciting. Any brush fires were easily contained. At my normal time I was headed to the gym to get an hour workout. Today I went over to the seldom used area where there was a speed bag and a heavy bag. My gym wasn’t based on MMA so few of the clientele used that area but the owner really wanted to expand into that kind of workout so he had invested in some equipment. He showed me some workout routines and I soon wore my tired 43 year old muscles out as I started to use them in a different than normal way.
For some reason a little voice was telling me to get prepared. I didn’t try to examine my hunch but just went with the flow and started to see Mark’s attractive face in the heavy bag as I gave it a workout.
When my arms were dead I went to a treadmill and ran for twenty minutes before calling it a night and showering and heading home.
At home Marie was not present. I shrugged my shoulders. I had returned a little earlier than normal and decided she must have been at some kind of school function. About ten minutes later the garage opener cycled and soon she was coming in the door. Since she saw my car in the garage she knew I was there.
“Baby, you are home earlier than normal on your gym night. Is there something wrong or do you feel ill?” She gave me a full kiss and felt my forehead. “Do you have a fever or something?”
I shook my head. “No, I started a different workout routine and my arms are dead. I just had enough strength to get my shower and dress. I will be fine after getting a good night’s sleep.”
She threw together a healthy salad and we ate. There was little conversation. After dinner we retired to the den and watched a little TV. Isn’t it amazing that with hundreds of channels we stuck with a favorite few and tonight was reruns of home improvement shows.
I just let my mind drift while we watched one show for the fortieth or fiftieth time. I didn’t try think of anything at all. I wasn’t horny, just relaxed with my wife.
By bedtime I wasn’t expecting any sex. There had not been any indication by Marie that she wanted to have carnal relations with me. I disrobed down to my normal boxers and got into bed while she took a quick shower. Nothing new or different in our average night preparations.
Marie came out of the bathroom in a long tee shirt, her normal sleepwear. When she got into bed she turned off her light and we were plunged into darkness. I sought out her face in the gloom and gave her a goodnight kiss and prepared to move to my side, my normal sleep position.
Marie stopped me. “Hey, don’t you remember what I promised this morning?”
I shrugged my shoulders. “Yeah, but since you didn’t say anything or indicate that you wanted any love from me this evening I figured that you forgot about it.” This wasn’t unusual as over the years we had made many promises of sexual pleasure that had not been kept by either of us.
She kissed me hard. “I promised. You gave me a fantastic orgasm last night and then never took your own pleasure. That is almost unheard of in our marriage. I want you to have an orgasm now.”
Now I should tell you this, no man ever says no to an orgasm from his wife. Nope, not ever. I couldn’t think of a reason to deny her giving me that petit mort.
She did kind of like I had the night before. She kissed me again and again, using her tongue at times. She lightly chewed on my neck just below the ear. I had shivers running up and down my spine as she seldom does that to me. She nipped and sucked my nipples, something she had never done before. I had to wonder from what source she had learned that trick. It felt good and I certainly didn’t want to ruin the moment by giving her the third degree but I kept that little question in the back of my mind as she continued.
She worked her way down my chest to my abdomen and gave my belly button a tonguing. It didn’t do anything for me but, what the hell, if it pleases her then it pleases me.
She was softly using her hand on my cock this entire time. Since I had not spurted out my load last night I was hard in very little time. She stroked up and down. Occasionally she would wipe her hand with her tongue for some lubrication and continue as she made love to my body.
